Homeseller rejects realtor’s photos

Macon, GA home seller rejects “cellphone” photos
taken by realtor!

Many more home sellers in Macon, GA should do the same.

Here’s the story . . .

 I received a call recently from a widow who owns a fabulous home on the banks of Lake Tobesofkee.   She was quite dismayed that the Realtor’s cell phone  photos didn’t show the home in it’s best light.   She insisted that the Realtor hire a professional photographer which he refused to do.   The agent replied he didn’t know of anyone so the client found my website and called me herself.

     The listing is now up again with my photos in the listing and I know they will assist in getting a quick sale for this lovely home.

     Research done within the real estate industry has proven that homes sell faster and for more money when the listing photos are done professionally.  The listing photos are the foundation for all the marketing (website listings, MLS, flyers, newspaper ads, etc.) that is going to be done to sell your home.  Home sellers:  BEFORE YOU SIGN ANY LISTING CONTRACT MAKE SURE IT INCLUDES PROFESSIONAL LISTING PHOTOS!

Anna Roberts, of Rivoli Realty, asked me to create the listing photos for this very nice home in Barrington Hall.  Here’s how Anna describes the home:

“Fabulous 4 bedroom & one level with updated paint colors, new carpet, beautiful hardwoods in kitchen, dining room, breakfast room, den z7 foyer. Triple crown mouldings, vaulted ceiling in den accented with fireplace, Archadeck off den, & new Champion windows along front of home. Split floor-plan with 2 bedrooms at one end of the home and master & guest/nursery at the other end. Open & spacious floor-plan. Covered back porch. Two fireplaces! Unfinished basement has access from outside with concrete floors & lighted work bench area. Beautiful landscaping and covered back porch!”

I’ve put a video together of the images that I created:

One secret that Macon home sellers need to know.

One secret that Macon, GA home sellers need to know is that Professional quality listing photos have been proven to sell homes faster AND for more money !

Redfin  (a nationwide realty group) did year long research on how the
QUALITY of listing photos effected the sales of homes they marketed.
The results were so conclusive that all the homes that they list are now
professionally photographed.

Whether you are selling FSBO or through a Realtor,  using professionally created listing photos will greatly increase your chances for a QUICK and PROFITABLE sale.

Despite the results of this study (and overlooking all the benefits to themselves) a large majority of Macon, GA Realtors DO NOT have their listings professionally photographed.  Before you sign any listing contract with a Realtor, insist that they
agree to have YOUR home professionally photographed.  Yes! ; it’s that important.

Listing photos (good or bad) are the very foundation of all the marketing that is going to be done to sell your home.  Let’s look at two examples:

Believe it or not, many Realtors have taken to using their cell phone to take the photos that they will use for your listing.  On the most recent photo session that I did,  I took one photo of the room with my cell phone (below) and then, from the same camera position, created the image at the bottom.

Regrettably, this is what you can expect from most Realtors in Macon, GA

Now, using a multiple exposure technique and some time in the computer, this is the Professional quality listing photo.

This is the photo quality that will stimulate buyers to get off their couch and into your home for a showing.
